Pincushion Pal Ring

Hi...perhaps you remember me? I started this blog a few years ago and would write incessantly about beautiful things that caught my eye...and then the holidays came and went and my husband and I went to New York City for a brief stint together (without the kids!) and then we promptly took a family vacation for nearly two weeks in Hawaii...and now I'm back. I can't say it was all that bad taking a break from my blog, it was fantastic for family bonding, which is most important anyhow, right? Quite honestly, I'm feeling fresh and back on track! I've definitely got a list of things I want to share with you and will be setting out to do that over the next couple of weeks. I've also begun illustrating after hitting an "illustrator's block" for a couple of months and I will eventually share those things with you too.

But let me just start with this brilliant little Pincushion Pal Ring! It only caught my eye because Bean will be starting a weekly sewing class next Friday and I imagine we'll need little things like this. Well, perhaps it won't be a "need" right away but it certainly adds a little excitement to sewing.
